"COMIN' SOON TO 'THE TOON'???"

For the thord weekend in a row we let the train take the strain az we heeded soothbound on the East Coast Mainline, this time to Peterborough and then onward to Norfolk.Forst port o caall when we arrived @ 'dinnertime bells' waz 'The Murderers Arms' where we (not suprizinglee!) 'murdered' a few pints before heedin' for the away end which waz a qwaata of an hours waalk away.

It haz to be said straight away that this waz yet another dire performance from the black n whites but at least we didn' concede a goal and a point iz better that nowt!The home side wornt any better and a nil-nil draw was a fair result.Game highlights?
